Bidding Nokia goodbye, and sending her on her way - albeit with her not leaving till she got your phone number and other personal contact details - you headed off to a junction where you could cut off the approaching ultimate.
Thankfully, with your Stealth program, and your enhanced abilities, rushing there, and with knowledge of the area, meant that you got there with a good minute to spare.
You situated yourself atop one of the platforms overlooking the pass it was walking down according to your digivice radar and got yourself set up and ready.
And of course, you weren't quite stupid enough to think you could take an ultimate on yourself in a straight up fight...yet. So you loaded your fight happy ultimate's, and by that you meant your giant cyborg dinosaur and army commando werewolf.
So when a badass beastly looking canine digimon swaggered down the pass, you were very happy, both with your vantage point, and with the fact that you had long ago upgraded your Stealth skill to get rid of scents.
A Cerberumon. One of your favourites. Honestly, in another life, you'd definitely raise one of them up, but right now, you have quite a bit of digimon, twelve of them to be exact.
You'll just make it into an egg. Maybe in the future you'll raise him up to be a badass hell doggo once again.
But for now?
"Nuclear Laser!"
"Dark Wolf Claw!"
"Giga Blaster!"
A trio of attacks blew it and most of the area out of existence in a titanic explosion that would easily level a real world block and then some, and left only a massive crater and a sprinkling of black and red data behind.
The rewards you got from scanning it, made it all the worth it. You'd definitely do something with this lovely little doggy in the future, if only to thank it for the sweet ass regeneration it bestowed on you.
You had no idea what a Pusurimon was, but its egg is yours now.
"Giga Destroyer!"
A massive explosion rocked the entrance of Kowloon level 3. What was left of two digimon, a Monochromon and a Black Were Gararumon fighting over a large cache of neutral data that had just appeared, nothing but data in the wind.
Oh, and the massive fuck off crater creating by the gargantuan explosion from Black Metal Greymon X firing his chest missiles.
"Woooh!" The massive black dinosaur cheered, "They didn't stand a chance boss!"
Casually reclining on your massive digimon's shoulder you smirked, "Course not bud," you replied, "You're a beast now, even mega digimon will shit themselves fighting you."
Of course, the Black Were Garurumon would most likely have put up a much bigger fight if it had the chance to respond and Black Metal Greymon X hadn't just appeared out of nowhere when you dropped your Stealth skill.
His eyes positively lit up, you could see that easily since you were right beside them and they were about the same size as you, "Oooh a mega level!" the digimon gasped, "Can we go find one of them to fight boss? Can we? Can we!?" he began to hop up and down on his massive raptor like legs excitedly.
It was a good thing you weren't on the ground, with his immense size he'll be causing an earthquake down below that would be annoying to keep your balance during.
"Maybe, form what I know the digimon that was stolen from Roy was a pretty high tier ultimate, so whoever done it would need decent fire power to keep it contained." you replied.
Roy was the guy who sold you your chrome digizoid. He's a pretty okay guy, and makes a lot of cash in his buisness. Because of that, he usually raises pretty powerful digimon and even sells quite a few that need chrome digizoid to digivolve, and they're usually pretty powerful and worth a ton. Making the Skull Greymon you sold seem like chump change.
He even had a pretty powerful mega on hand, he'd shown it off to ward off other people at the black market. A Hi Andromon, a pretty beast looking digimon all things said and done. And the digimon he was selling was not long away from being a mega level itself.
"Ooh I hope they're really strong boss!" Black Metal Greymon X gushed, "I've not fought anyone strong enough to push me hard since I digivolved."
You were about to encourage your digimon when a really loud notification beeped from your digivice. Bringing it up, your eyes widened. There was a picture in the text at the very top.
'Hayato things have went crazy in the last half hour! A freaking Devidramon showed up in the real world, and tons of people saw it. The scrawny guy Tamashi and his stupid dino thing managed to digvolve and beat it quickly before me and Taomon could get there, but this isn't going away anytime soon. It's only a matter of time before it hits the news stations.'
Shit. This was exactly what you were afraid of happening. How the hell did the suits fail to put down just a champion though in time? Were their systems down or something?
"Buddy, load all that data quickly, we have an emergency and have to get this shit done quickly and get back home." you told the digimon who's shoulder you were riding.
It was a testament to how much your words mattered to your digimon, that he didn't even bother asking what was going on, the massive cyborg dinosaur merely nodded, "Alright boss, gimme a sec!" he replied, spreading his arms wide and drawing the data of the Monochromon, the Black Were Garurumon and the data cache.
...Well, things are bound to get interesting from here on out at the very least.
And a moment later, you were notified of a job you were to take that would be paying quite a bit. To deal with a stolen digimon and the thieves who were in the process of selling it off.
"Fucking hell!" you cursed in annoyance as you skidded around one diverging path and immediately shot forward into another, traversing the path before you rapidly.
Although, you made sure to go slow enough to make sure you didn't get tunnel vision and get lost on the absurd path you were taking.
After getting the data of Black WereGarurumon, and using the Digimental of Darkness you received from it digivolve Butterflymon back into Black Gatomon, you quickly went on your way.
Level 3 of Kowloon was very different from the previous floors. While they were basically just massive rooms connected, level 3 was where things began to get whacky.
Literal criss-crossing paths that went forward hundreds of meters, only to diverge left for fifty meters, then go down for two hundred meters, to the left again, and then split into two more paths a hundred or so meters forward.
And that was just one branching path. There were dozens more in the first room alone, and to make matters worse, there were invisible barriers at the ledges to stop people from falling off, but also made it impossible for you to just jump between them and make the trip to where the the stolen digimon was being sold.
You were just about to turn around another divergence, when the ringtone from your digivice went off. Pulling it out as you ran, you looked at the screen to see that the caller was Ruki, your lovely lovely girlfriend.
Eh, do you really want to answer this right now? While you love talking to her, you're in kind of a rush.
Well, you supposed you were good at multi-tasking.
"What's up babe?" you asked as you answered the call. With how fast you could move, it didn't really matter if you got caught up talking to your girl for a bit.
"..Gogglehead, you aren't going to believe this," Ruki began, "Some suit showed up at your apartment a few minutes ago, calls himself Yamaki, and to cut to the chase, he's basically trying to recruit us to work for some goverment agency called Hypnos, he basically wants to make us attack dogs that take out any digimon that come through to our world."
You almost slipped at the absurd, out of nowhere information. Thankfully, even as you spluttered a bit, you managed to ease your running stride. "That doesn't make sense," you replied, "I knew there was some shady people working in the background to take out digimon, but I thought they had powerful digimon of their own that was letting them take out the digimon that crossed over quickly."
"Doesn't look like it," Ruki replied with a huff, you could practically see your girlfriend rolling her eyes, "He didn't stay long, only to leave a pair of his contact cards for me and you, told me to bring you along to that massive government building in the middle of Shinjuku, which is apparently Hypnos Headquarters, then he went on his way, off to go find Tamashi and the preachy asshole."
That was quite a bit to digest. And honestly, the most concerning one was that the guy knew where you lived, sure any government agent could really find that out easily, but the fact that they knew he had digimon was a bother.
"How bad are things looking?" you asked.
Ruki sighed, "...Quite bad," she replied, "My grandma is freaking out, and there's even been a few riots in the streets. This can't be kept on the down low, not when videos recording of the fight with Devidramon have already went viral on youtube and shit. It'll be on the news tonight, and then pretty much everyone is gonna know that digimon are real."
..That really was a problem. Eden itself was chaotic enough with hackers and digimon, you couldn't even really imagine the anarchy that would surface in the real world if people all over started getting digimon, especially since you don't actually know how those stupid other digivices are given to people. You had gotten one the second Impmon decided to become your digimon, so if that was the only requirement, if someone met a digimon, and they agreed to become partners, they'd get a digivice. You hoped whoever was giving the digivices out wasn't that stupid, the sheer damage someone could do in the real world with just something like a Keramon, a rookie, is absurd.
You pursed your lips and picked up speed, the surroundings of Kowloon Level 3 blurring past, "Gimme half an hour and I'll have this job finished babe," you promised, "Then me and you can take care whatever problems are popping up."
Ruki sighed, "Fine, fine, but don't be too long," she replied, "My grandma wants me to come over and see her, and you're coming with me. I've got used to waking up with your dick between my ass cheeks, and I'm not giving it up right now."
The funny thing about Ruki, that despite her aversion to dating in general in the beginning, she's actually quite clingy, not that you mind.
You smirk, "Obviously, since I've gotten used to using your awesome tits as pillows, there's no way I wanna miss out on that even for a night." you said, "Not to mention I can't get enough of seeing your lips wrapped around my dick every morning."
You heard Ruki snort over the line, "Well, better be quick then gogglehead, cuz if you're even a minute late, you're not getting one for the next three days."
..Well, now the stakes are actually quite high aren't they?
"Then I better get a move on huh?" you hummed back, "Gotta get a going then, love ya babe." you bid goodbye with an evil smirk.
...
"L-love you t-to." Ruki stuttered back, and then the line went quiet. Ah Ruki, always so skittish when it came to the actual fluffy side of their relationship.
Still, you had to get a move on. No way are you losing blowjob privileges just because of some digimon stealing punk ass bitches.
It took another five or so minutes before you reached the area the deal was going down in. You could hear it, if nothing else.
The minute you passed into the massive room it was taking part in, a loud, rage filled roar split the air. "LET ME OUT!" something massive bellowed, followed by an almighty crash that shook the floor beneath you even with how far away you were.
Following the roars of rage, you activated your stealth skill and quickly made your way to where the deal was happening.
As expected, you found the digimon that was stolen. Housed in a massive laser barred cage, it roared angrily, bashing its face against the force field keeping it back over and over, stabbing its bladed horn into it with all its might.
A Mega Seadramon.
The one conducting the deal stood in front of the cage, facing a group of familiarly dressed girls. The Nakano Stripes hacker team. There were four of them all in, two flanked by a pair of champion digimon, another flanked by three champion's, and Rena, the leader standing at the front facing the thief who stole Mega Seadramon, flanked by three ultimate digimon, a Wingdramon, Dinobeemon and a towering Dragomon.
Quite the line up you had to admit.
The thief though didn't seem perturbed at all at facing down so many digimon. Which you kind of got, since he had a golden plated Etemon standing by his side. You lifted up your digivice and scanned it for data, "KingEtemon, a virus type mega level digimon clad in golden chrome digizoid, its signature attack is Monkey Wrench." you read off the holographic screen that popped up.
You eyed it for a moment before smirking. Nothing you couldn't handle.
Still, your eyes drifted to Rena, the leader of the Nakano Stripes. You remembered your time working for the group a year ago, updating their personal server with the best security and defences you could think of. The money was goo,d the incentative even better.
You had some good times with Rena. Mostly spent in the bed room, and you could still hear her gasping and squealing your name beneath you. She could be such a loving girlfriend when she tried, though extremely paranoid at any girl who paid you any attention, which led to your relationship with her fracturing apart.
That was one thing you definitely preferred about Ruki. She wasn't the type to think that you'd cheat on her just because some girl made a pass at you, she was just too confident in herself to see why you would want to sleep with any random girl when you could fuck her.
"Ah, this is gonna suck." you mused with a small bitter chuckle. Dealing with jealous clingy Ex's could do that to you.
Anyway, again, shameless Pa-atreon plug. I've got one, go by the same username on there, easy to find and all that jazz. Support me if you want, it'd be swell, but don't feel pressured lads and ladies, I'll be uploading my stuff outside it regardless and not keeping it all behind a paywall or anything like that.
